A very Merry Christmas to all my friends and followers!

Happy Holidays to those of every faith tradition, and goodwill to all!

Thanks for all your kindness and support this past year. It means a lot to me.

I’m behind on visits to so many blogs– do forgive me. I shall try to make amends.

I wish you all success and happiness in 2016.

Even more, I wish you faith, peace, hope, wisdom, and serenity.

And now… here’s the Orphan Boy! What a kidder!!  😊

The truth is often spoken in jest, and Oliver does teach us an important lesson: It never hurts to ask.

Do kings really sell their wares at craft fairs and farmers markets?? Incredible– who knew?? 😊

Are you a Charles Dickens fan?

Have you read Oliver Twist, with its famous line, “Please, sir, I want some more?”

Can you name the Magi? (They’re anonymous in the Bible, but they’ve acquired names via legend and tradition.)

Ever asked somebody for something extraordinary, and been surprised to get it, just because you asked?

Hope you’ll leave a comment.
